redox.patch is 556MB, exceeding GitHub's 100MB file size limit.
Split into 7 chunks of ~90MB each under local/patches/base/redox-patch-chunks/.
Reassembly script: local/patches/base/reassemble-redox-patch.sh.
Added redox.patch to .gitignore to prevent future push failures.
Only local/recipes/kde/kwin/recipe.toml and README.md remain tracked.
gitignore now uses ** to match all subdirectories.
git grep -I kwin_wayland_wrapper returns 0 text matches.
Oracle found kwin_wayland_wrapper in tracked upstream KWin v6.3.4
source files. These are not Red Bear code — they are auto-extracted
by the recipe. Added to .gitignore per project policy.
Packages/ is the canonical binary package repository for Red Bear OS.
Contains stage.pkgar copies of all built packages (91 files).
New scripts:
- local/scripts/sync-packages.sh: syncs built pkgar → Packages/
- make packages-sync: run sync
- make packages-list: list package count
Future: cache-auto will auto-sync to Packages/ after each build.
Red Bear is a fork/overlay on top of Redox. The upstream build
system wasn't designed for forks — it loses all cached stages on
make clean with no recovery path.
This commit adds a git-tracked build cache:
- local/cache/pkgar/{pkg}/stage.pkgar — per-package cache files
- cache-sync.sh: sync built packages → git-tracked cache
- cache-sync.sh --restore: restore cache → recipe targets
- cache-sync.sh --commit: sync + git commit
- Auto-restore before build, auto-sync after build
Cache survives: make clean, make distclean, git clone, upstream rebase.
Recovery from clean: seconds (restore from git) vs hours (full rebuild).
Commit Red Bear OS icon and loading background images to the branding recipe source. Update .gitignore to exclude fetched tarballs, build artifacts, and target/ dirs inside local/recipes/ while preserving tracked source code.

Derivative of Redox OS (https://www.redox-os.org) adding:
- AMD GPU driver (amdgpu) via LinuxKPI compat layer
- ext4 filesystem support (ext4d scheme daemon)
- ACPI fixes for AMD bare metal (x2APIC, DMAR, IVRS, MCFG)
- Custom branding (hostname, os-release, boot identity)
Build system is full upstream Redox with RBOS overlay in local/.
Patches for kernel, base, and relibc are symlinked from local/patches/
and protected from make clean/distclean. Custom recipes live in
local/recipes/ with symlinks into the recipes/ search path.
Build: make all CONFIG_NAME=redbear-full
Sync: ./local/scripts/sync-upstream.sh
